EXCEPT IN THE UNLIKELY EVENT OF WAR

EXCEPT IN THE UNLIKELY EVENT OF WAR

Inspired by the best-selling 1967 publication The Report from Iron Mountain (dubbed the “greatest literary hoax of all time”), and by the modern media phenomenon known as “controlling the message,” this astonishing new play by Sean Devine is a scathing satire on society’s dependency on war, the oppressive threat of control, and the mutability of truth. Except in the Unlikely Event… bends the lines between theatre, film, and reality to explore media, the message, and who is really in control. #artisaweapon Preview Nov 15, 8pm A Roundhouse partnership with Pi Theatre and Horseshoes & Hand Grenades Theatre Supported by British Columbia Arts Council, Government of BC, City of Vancouver, Canada Council for the Arts, the Leon and Thea Koerner Foundation.
